Total RNA containing miRNA was isolated from hPASMC and lung tissue samples using QIAzol lysis reagent and column purified using a miRNeasy kit (Qiagen). After quantification with Nanodrop 2000 spectrophotometer (ThermoScientific, Rockford, IL), miRNAs were reversely transcribed using a RT2 miRNA First Strand Kit (SABiosciences, Frederick, MD). For qRT-PCR analysis of miRNA expression, a poly (A) tail was first added to the 3′-end of miRNAs using a Poly (A) Polymerase Tailing Kit (Epicentre Biotechnologies, Madison, WI). Poly (A) tailed-miRNAs were then reversely transcribed using M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY) with a poly (T) adaptor, which includes a poly (T) sequence and a sequence complementary to the universal primer used in following qRT-PCR analysis. SNORD44, SNORD47 and SNORD48 were used as internal controls. The expression of mRNAs was determined using specific TaqMan primer assays (Applied Biosystems) with GAPDH used as an internal control. Real-time PCR analysis was performed using a CFX384 system (Bio-Rad), and relative changes in mRNA and miRNA expression were calculated after normalization to their respective internal controls using the comparative Ct method.

Viruses were passaged on confluent Vero E6 cells infected at a MOI of 0.01 to follow the emergence of compensatory mutations over five sequential rounds of infections. RNA was extracted from infected cells at each passage using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, Life Technologies) according to the manufacturer's instructions. 3′-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (3′ RACE) was then carried out using a poly(A) polymerase tailing kit (Epicentre Biotechnologies, Tebu-Bio, Le Perray en Yvelines, France). Briefly five micrograms of total RNA was polyadenylated in a 20-μL reaction mixture for 7 min at 37 °C. The RNA was then purified, and reverse transcription was carried out using the oligo(dT) 3′ RACE-adaptor primer (AP) (Invitrogen) or primers specific for the M segment and avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptase (RT) (Promega, Charbonnières, France). This step was followed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the KOD polymerase (Toyobo, Merk, Darmstadt, Germany) and specific primers and/or 3′ RACE-AP. The resulting RT-PCR products were separated by agarose electrophoresis, and the DNA bands with the correct sizes were purified using the QIAquick purification kit (Qiagen, Courtaboeuf, France) and then sequenced according to standard protocols using the BigDye terminator v1.1 kit (Applied Biosystems, Villebon-sur-Yvette, France).

5′RACE was performed as previously described19 (link), using the 5′RACE System from Invitrogen. cDNA was generated from total RNA using a gene specific primer (GSP1) and then poly(C)-tailed using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. cDNA was then amplified using a nested gene specific primer (GSP2) and the abridged anchor primer from the 5′RACE System.

Where possible, PCR products were re-amplified with nested primers (GSP4). Primer sequences are listed in Table S6.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
